Unfortunately - the Bruins will still have the 2011 cup after tonight regardless of what happens.

Similarly, this core will have their two Presidents trophies, numerous individual accomplishments, and haunted playoff memories.

So - what CAN happen tonight and what IS on the line?

A potential two points earned against a very solid team in the Bruins, while possibly gaining ground on the St. Louis', San Jose's, and LA's and what have you. I would also think that pride is on the line regardless of whether the Canucks downplay this or not.

Whats on the line ?? REVENGE.. plus team pride.. and proving the Canucks can beat a tough defensive elite team.. A healthy Kesler and 100% effort from all our players for the full 60 minutes will give the Canucks the win !!

This Gadzic or however you spell it is beating the crap out of everyone lately, he's rocked Lucic and Bordeleau in his most recent fights. The new heavyweight champ of the league? Anyhow, Lucic might have been brought back down to earth from that punch. With Thornton and McQuaid out they shouldn't be so fucking full of themselves tonight.
